Writing The Wrongs

The objective of the Writing The Wrongs competition is to create positive thoughtful energy that becomes reality through the written and spoken word. There are many issues that can be positively addressed with a few words or inspiration. By internalizing and personalizing wholesome messages of inspiration and empowerment we hope to correct that which is incorrect within each of us individually as well as universally. The competition is also designed to:

1. Raise the awareness of the power of the written and spoken word
2. Encourage those who enter to hold themselves accountable for the messages they promote to present and future generations
3. Create an ongoing competition that is always free for all to enter
4. Develop additional competition categories that will result in paid contracts and royalty payments for future winners

Please review the following information and details on how you and your members may enter the Writing The Wrongs competition.

Community Engagement
The sculpture will go on a national UK tour so that members of the public from other cities will also have an opportunity to place a small ‘Peace’ of clay onto the sculpture as part of the creative process and in support of promoting personal, social and environmental peace. See an example via this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgU-TWXuGI0&feature=related as celebrated actor, Joseph Marcell placed the first ‘Peace’ of clay onto the Stop The Violence sculpture in 2009.
